Support
At this time, we do not have any volunteer jobs available. We consider ourselves fortunate that many in our Oakville community give their time this way. While we do not have anything inside the food bank, we encourage you to explore other ways to support us. Consider an online cash donation, a food donation, or organizing a neighbourhood, school or workplace food drive. For tips on how to run a successful food drive, check out our website
Another great way to show your support is to follow, like and share Fare Share on Instagram.
When we have roles to fill, we will post the job description and application process on Volunteer Halton’s site, Volunteer Connector. check out our website
